Amid the many horrors of the Vietnam War, I found one of the worst to be the waiting — those quiet times of inactivity when anti

cipation of the next attack weighed on me like a pile of bricks. I might be lying in the mud along a creek bed somewhere, completely oblivious to the cold, the wet earth, or the smell of gunpowder still fresh in my nostrils. It was those times of waiting that showed me I had nothing else in my mind — no past, no future, no ideas. Just a raw awareness of the moment.
Which sentence best uses figurative language to match the paragraph's tone?

A.For years after that, I would remember the terror and suspense of those long minutes spent waiting.
B.In the quiet of the jungle, the rippling sounds of the creek carried me back to happier days on my parents' farm.
C.The jungle had reached into my mind, and its thick vines choked out everything else that had been there.
D.I could hear my own pulse drumming in my ears, but my only thought was to remain still and quiet.
